Whether you’re looking for an auto-tracking camera with hands-free technology, complete Hudl integration or livestreaming capabilities, Hudl Focus stands above all other options. Find out why.
Modern basketball is a fast-paced world that has pushed coaching staff and analysis departments to streamline their workflows, in order to create more efficient and effective evaluations of players’ performances and development. When thinking about your own process and analysis workflow, one of the first things to assess is how you capture and share your team’s performances on the court.
Traditional basketball video cameras are adequate for recording games and practices, but the need for dedicated, reliable resources can often mean they fall short in streamlining coaching workflows or providing consistent, high-quality video from the perfect angle.
That’s where Hudl Focus comes in. It’s a professional-grade camera that not only handles the recording of your basketball games, but also the uploading and sharing of game footage — all automatically.
An auto-tracking camera that simplifies the coaching process.
Hudl Focus is the only basketball camera that comes with complete Hudl integration. This means your games and practices are automatically recorded and uploaded to Hudl, saving you time to focus on what matters most —evaluating performances and developing your players.
“One part I use Focus for is the games. So I have the match schedule and the cameras start when the game starts. I use it for practice as well — I record every practice. For practice I use multiple camera angles for analysis and during live play I use the camera that follows the ball,” said Hermann Paar, head coach of BBC Gréngewald Hueschtert.
“The Focus footage is quality and I can send highlights and video cuts for all players to their Hudl online account for their use. This is enough for what we need, to send the video cuts to the players on their smartphones or laptops to show game films from here in the gym. So for that, it’s perfect and good communication in that way.”
